Obsolete Communism : The Left-Wing Alternative

In May 68 a student protest spread to other universities, to Paris factories and in a few weeks to most of France. A million Parisians marched; ten million workers went out on strike. At the center of the fray was Daniel Cohn-Bendit. "Obsolete Communism" was written in 5 weeks immediately after the state regained control, and no account of May 68 can match its immediacy or urgency.
